I know there has to be some people here that love cars. I was thinking maybe we could post the cars we drive or, would like to drive/work on, any projects, and so on. You can post a pic if you want. I'm not going to post any pics of my "actual" cars just because I'm paranoid

. So post up people let's see what you run!

Copy and paste if you want

I've got a little project I'm working on right now. There are some problems with starter, and I need to swap the heads and put on a new carb. She Had a fresh paint job in Chevy Red, about 5 years ago, but hasn't seen the road since.

Year: 1963
Make: Ford
Model: Fairlane 2door
Engine: Original 260ci v8
Modifications:Stock, except for the paint.

Here is what The car COULD look like. I would however remove the chrome from the rear pillars, the sides, and the front fenders to give it a more custom look. I also would like to put in a 289 or 302 with some hi-po heads and a 650 cfm 4bbl carb, with a street/strip cam....

take a look....

I am getting a P.U.M.A. as soon as it comes out. I will rent a bigger car if I distance travel. I can't wait to get my PUMA though.

Randude- that there is a '63, you can tell that because it still has the on the rear. The next year, 1964, Ford got rid of the fins and I believe that is also the hear that Ford started to make the Thunderbolts sport coupes. These came with hi-po 427 two 4bbl carbs and ram air. THOSE were hot cars!

i drive a 2007 toyota fj

this pic isnt mine (i wouldent post mine for obvious reasons)...but very similar.

ive had mine a little over a year and love it....no real issues w/ it

(when it's hot out and in idle w/ the clutch not depressed it chirps a bit)...been told thats pretty common tho, and has to do w/ the throwout bearing, and that replacing it or even replacing the clutch wont really fix it, but if i complain, toyota will replace it for free, but like i said it will come back...its no problem just a minor annoyance.

also mine is getting a 3" lift next week...(already rollin 33" BFG mudders)...and i'm strongly considering the roof tent by www.autohomeus.com ...thats why i chose this pic.

Year: 1993
Make: Nissan
Model:240sx
engine:2.4 liter DOHC 4 banger (KA24DE)
Modifications: mostly suspension, megan racing coilovers, polyurthane bushings all around, ajustable upper rear control arms, a rear subframe with lsd out of the 180sx from japan land it comes with bigger half shafts and swaybar. 300zx front 4 piston caliper brakes with sloted rotors stops on a dime.

Future Modifications: i need a new shell mine is beat up looking for a clean shell. eventually turbocharge the KA and build the motor for boost (lower compresion pistons stronger connecting rods). i want to push 300-350 with a mid size turbo not to much lag but still get that top end power.

i love my car but its a definate beater cosmeticly. i like to drift especally when it rains (saves tires :wink

and i go to a couple of events we have around here locally to get some seat time with out the hassle of the 5-0.

When you decide that you are going to go for something, and you don't let anything stand in your way, you open the door for great things to happen. And once you have made it that far, after having known what things look like from the bottom, you may find that the view from the top, is that much sweeter.
